72 Tones (72 Seasons)

The sound of rebirth — heavier, darker, and more personal than ever.

72 Tones is a meticulously engineered AmpliTube 5 preset collection built to capture the crushing low-end focus, midrange grit, and modern punch of 72 Seasons. Each preset pairs a song-matched Custom IR with a production-accurate signal chain inspired by the album’s blend of Marshall Superlead–style aggression, Mesa/Boogie Mark series precision, and boutique Friedman-influenced modifications.

This is the definitive way to unlock Metallica’s newest evolution in tone.
